Chrome browser can now be downloaded and used legally in Cuba

Residents in Cuba can now download and use Google's Chrome web browser legally for the first time allowing the few Internet users in that country access to the software.

In a post on the company's Google+ page it stated:

"U.S. export controls and sanctions can sometimes limit the products available in certain countries. As these trade restrictions evolve we've been working to figure out how to make more tools available in sanctioned countries. In the past couple years we've made Chrome downloadable in Syria and Iran. We're happy to say that Internet users in Cuba can now use Chrome too, and browse the web faster and more safely than they could before."
